My husband will get out in 2011 of active duty Army and wants to get a job at fedex or ups. I was wondering if being prior military will help in getting the job.He is a E-5 right now and has alot of responsibilitys right now ( thats a good thing for the future) He will get his CDL as soon as he has time close to his ETS date.Please even if you any ideas let me know! THANK YOU THANK YOU.

It's hard to say since his discharge date is so far away still. If he keeps a background of cargo handling, flights, maintenance and such that they use I would think they would certainly look at him. It won't hurt, that's for sure.

Cannot speak for those companies, but can say from prior experience and being a vet many companies will look and grade applicants higher for military service because they know that they are disciplined, call off sick less, and are generally more responsible. Good luck with this, and please thank your husband for his service, it is appreciated.
